One stick is 3 ft long and another is 6 ft long. You break the longer stick into sections.
\n" ); document.write( "(a) If the sections are 2 ft and 4 ft long, will the sticks form a triangle?
\n" ); document.write( "The longest side, 4 ft, must be longer than the difference between the lengths of the other 2 sides, and shorter than the sum of the other 2 sides.
\n" ); document.write( "===============================
